January has been a busy month for everyone in the Posse. Work has been
very heavy all over South Florida and this seems to be setting the
bench-mark for 2009. Everyone is gearing up for the Smoky Mountain Run
during June.

Our best wishes go out to Ragu from our Martin Posse. He is going well
and will be back in the saddle any day. He is a strong man and quality
Law Enforcement Officer. His son is a Rider in our Collier Posse and he
keeps us updated, all is well.

Steelhorse Posse has teamed up with Fraternal Order of Police Loge #50
and members from the Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office to make this
year's "Walk for the Cure" the best yet. We will be participating in the
18 walk for the cure on April 24th, 2009. Check back for future
information and information on ways interested people can donate or get
involved.

December
2008:

Steelhorse Posse attended the Bill's Bike's Memorial Toy Run. It seams
that the participation increases every year. Sheriff Ric Bradshaw was
generous enough to take time out of his busy schedule to be our Grand
Marshal and lead the Event ride. If you have a minute, take a look at
the photos on the
Pictures Page.

Steelhorse Posse would like to wish everyone a safe and happy holiday.
We look forward to seeing everyone at local rides and events. We hope
everyone is kept safe during the season. To our Brothers & Sisters in
Law Enforcement, a very special Happy Holiday.

November
2008:

Steelhorse Posse attended the Annual Party at Palm Beach Harley Davidson
to show our support to a local business that has given so much to the
local community through their donations and corporate support. We
encourage everyone to visit Palm Beach Harley Davidson and be a customer
of a business with a heart.

On
the 29th, members of the Palm Beach Posse and Martin Posse attended a
memorial service in Pahokee to honor Deputy Sheriff Donta Manuel &
Deputy Sheriff Jonathan Wallace. We presented the family with a memorial
frame. Each frame contained portraits of the fallen Deputies, shadings
from the Police Officer Hall of Fame, along with the PBSO Insignia and
Star. This event marked the one-year anniversary of their deaths in the
line of duty. They will always be honored and never forgotten.

October
2008:

Steelhorse Posse is looking forward to new opportunities for the
remainder of 2008. The membership has seen sizable growth and we still
have not broken our 10% rule.

Steelhorse Posse has teamed up with the Crossman family in hopes of
supporting and co-sponsoring the Boggy Creek Love Run on February 15th,
2009. Check back for details.

August
2008:

Steelhorse Posse MC attended the Sgt Chris Reyka Memorial Ride on August
9th. There was an impressive showing of support for the Reyka Family. We
were surprised to see that Steelhorse Posse MC was the only Law Enforcement
Motorcycle Club in attendance. Additionally, there was only one Law Enforcement Support MC
in attendance, the Hard Chargers MC. Fortunately, the independent riders were very
impressive. The procession down I-95 looked like an endless red snake.

Deputy
Donelley and the other volunteers put on a very organized and respectful
memorial for Sgt Chris Reyka and his family. They definitely get a well deserved "NOTEWORTHY" for
their efforts. The food was great and the bands did a great job.

The
Patriot Guard MC was in attendance. They showed their genuine support for
the Reyka Family and the need to keep the memory of this tragedy alive and
in the front of everyone's minds until the Killer's are caught and
prosecuted.

Steelhorse Posse Motorcycle Club pledges our support to Sgt Chris Reyka's
family. We will continue to support the Sgt Chris Reyka functions and
continue to look for the killers.

June
2008:

This
was a very cool month for our club. The Annual Smoky Mountain Run was
awesome. Unfortunately, conflicting schedules reduced the size of our group,
but we road like a crowd. While riding through the Smoky Mountain National
Park we realized just how hard it is for Law Enforcement to take time off
from work and enjoy moments like these, that's why the run was that much
sweeter. When ever we can get away with some of our Brothers and Sisters,
it's a special time. Cruise on over to ourPhoto Pageand
enjoy the pics.

May
2008:

This
Memorial Day weekend Renegade came up with a good idea for a ride. Rather
than sit around at a bar-b-que drinking beer, he though it would be nice for
the Riders, who didn't have to work, to ride up to the Navy Seal Museum in
Fort Pierce, Florida. He deserves a "Noteworthy" for this idea. The ride was
awesome because the weather was perfect. The Museum is a very cool place to
visit, everyone should make the trip and take the tour (www.navysealmuseum.com). We thought it was a
great way to learn more about the history of the Navy Seals and the members
of the various Seal Teams that have laid down their lives to protect the US
Constitution and the citizens this great document represents. Take a moment
to visit our photo pageand flip through the Pics.

We
are proud to welcome RAGU to our Martin Posse. Ragu is a member of the
Martin County Sheriff's Office. This Brother contributes much to his agency
and his community and we are expecting the Steelhorse Fellowship of
Steelhorse Posses will benefit from his experience and special talents.

On May
9th, representatives from Steelhorse Posse traveled to Cocoa Beach, Florida
to meet with members from the Gunfighters Nation. The "Gunfighters Nation"
is a Law Enforcement Motorcycle Club who got their start in the Northeast.
The Gunfighters hosted a party that also served as a fundraiser. We had a
great time and made some new friends. Steelhorse Posse MC anticipates a
great future of respect and riding with our new Brothers from the
Gunfighters Nation. Take a moment to visit their web site and check them out
(www.gunfightersny.com)
you won't be disappointed. We also had the opportunity to spend some time
with a few members from the Buffalo Soldiers MC. They are a fun group that
are very serious about motorcycles and having fun. This is a club with a lot
of history so take a few minutes to flip through their web site (www.buffalosoldiersnational.com).
Check out the
PHOTOS!

This
is an exiting month for our club. We are proud to welcome two new members to
our organization:
Shroom and Busster,
both of whom are members in good standing with the Palm Beach County
Sheriff's Office. Both of these Brothers are senior members at the Sheriff's
Office and we know their seniority and friendship will bring so much to our
club.

Steelhorse Posse MC is gearing up for our Annual Smoky Mountain Ride next
month. This is one of the rides that the membership really looks forward to.
This year we have some new members to the club joining us as well as some
non-member riders from the Law Enforcement Community.

April
2008:

Steelhorse Posse MC participated in the Sergeant Chris Reyka Memorial Ride
on March 29, 2008. Go to our photo page
and check out the pics.

This month brings several new members to the Palm Beach Posse, we welcome
them and anticipate they will enjoy meeting and riding with our Brothers &
Sisters from the Collier Posse and Martin Posse.

March
2008:

Well March
is here and Bike Week in Daytona Beach is in full swing. The True American Hero
Motorcycle Ride was a great success. What a great day for riding. We went over
to the west coast the night before and was treated to a pre-ride dinner by
Twister, everyone had to loosen their belts. We had a really great time while
raising money for our fallen Brothers & Sisters. Trot on over to our
photo page and take a look.

February
21, 2008:

Sgt Kevin
O'Brien presented Rev. Patricia Wallace with a $2,500.00 check in honor of her
son, Jonthan Wallace, who was killed in the line of duty on November 28, 2007.
Rev Wallace accepted a second $2,500.00 check on behalf of Suzette Manuel to
honor her husband, Donta Manuel, who also died in the line of duty on that same
November evening. You should recall Sgt O'Brien was a participant in the Tour De
Force for the past two years. Steelhorse Fellowship MC proudly sponsored Sgt O'Brien
and the other riders from Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office for the past two
years so we could make this special moment possible.

It's
important for everyone in Law Enforcement and every Agency to get involved in
the Tour De Force. The money Tour De Force provides to fallen Officer's families
is more than a check, it represents to our Brothers and Sisters that we will be
there for their families if they are ever called to make the ultimate sacrifice.

_________________________

We
would like to apologize for the inconvenience with respect to the change from
"Com" to " Org". The club is expanding and we needed the availability of
additional avenues on the World Wide Web in order to ensure simplicity when
someone wants to contact one of our individual Posses or Riders. Since we are a
non-profit Law Enforcement Motorcycle Club, we thought it would be fitting to
use the "Org" as our respective Law Enforcement Agencies do. Thank you, and we
look forward to your continued support.

Steelhorse
Fellowship MC was proud to lend our support for the Camp Boggy Creek "LOVE
RUN", we had a great time. Jenn Crossman and her parents are very special
people. With all they have going on, they still make time support Jenn with
with her idea for an event to raise money for this worthy and necessary
organization. Please take a moment to visit the
Camp Boggy Creek website and
discover for yourself the incredible things they accomplish. At their
request, Steelhorse Fellowship MC and all of our Steelhorse Posses have
agreed to lend a helping hand with next year's event.

We
would like to welcome our new Riders to the Collie and Palm Beach Posses. We look forward to seeing
all of you at the events during the next few months. We have a full calendar
this year so there should be something for every Rider. For those of you,
non-members, who would like to ride with us, visit our Events Page and drop

On
January 9th, Spicoli's wife gave birth to his second daughter, Mina Alanis. Mina
arrived at 1108 hrs and came in at 6 lbs.-10 ounces. Mom and Mina are home and
doing very well. Spicoli is a Rider from our Palm Beach Posse and is one of
the original founding members. Spicoli, all of your Brothers & Sisters in Steel Horse Posse MC
would like to say:

Congratulations

The 11th
Annual Tour De Force for 2007 was a great success. Sgt Kevin 0'Brien and Deputy
Jim Corman completed the 290 mile bicycle ride from North Miami Beach to Daytona
Beach Shores. Deputy Adrian Wallace and Deputy Rick Jackson joined in along the
route to successfully complete partial rides. The Tour De Force has already
raised over 136K for the families of Fallen Officers. Steelhorse Fellowship MC is
proud to have sponsored riders from the Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office for
the past two years. We look forward to next year.

Very
Important!

There
was a very important ruling on December 21, 2007 by the 2nd US Federal Court of
Appeals. The decision is of great significance to Law Enforcement Officers
of all levels. The decision involved four members of the Connecticut Department
of Corrections; Gary Piscottano, Mark Vincenzo, Walter Scappini & James Kight.
Two of these men joined the Outlaws MC and the other two associated with a
Outlaws MC. The two that joined the Outlaws MC quit the club but continued to
associate, they were fired. The other two were warned to stay away from the
1%er's and discontinue associating and attending 1% MC sponsored events.
One listened and the other didn't, the one who didn't, was fired. The one who
did listen, was severely disciplined. The four men filed Federal Law Suits
claiming that their 1st and 14th Amendments were violated. The lower court ruled
that their behavior was contrary to the public good and their case was
dismissed. They appealed to the 2nd US Court of Appeals and the dismissal was
affirmed. To our Brothers & Sisters of Law Enforcement; take the time to review
this 77 page document.

The
Appeals Court identified certain conduct and made the following decision:

Law
Enforcement have no 1st Amendment or 14th Amendment rights to join a 1% MC
or associate with same.

At
first the men offered that they had no knowledge that the Outlaws MC had
already been identified as a Criminal organization by several Federal and
Local Law Enforcement agencies. A 1997 RICO in Wisconsin that imprisoned 17
members of the club was sited. A 2001 RICO in Florida was noted that
resulted in the imprisonment of the club's President.

This information was contained in a NDIC report that was provided to the
four men. Unfortunately, three of these men continued to associate with the
Outlaws MC and other 1%er Clubs, they were all fired.

Two
incidents are of particular interest. One involved attendance at an event
that was merely (partially) sponsored by the Outlaws MC. The other involved
repeated socializing at a local bar/eatery that is known to be frequented by
the Outlaws MC and other 1%er's. The men attempted to deny the association
but were then shown photos and video from routine Law Enforcement
surveillance that confirmed their association.

The
report indicated that their behavior "Constitutes or Gives Rise to the
Appearance of a Conflict of Interest", and was "Unprofessional
Behavior that Reflects Negatively On the Agency". Piscottano, while
attending a Christmas party at the Outlaws Club House witnessed the
execution of a search warrant. Piscottano actually was critical of Police
for enforcing the law.

The
Court noted: Pickering v. Board of Education; "The State has interests in
regulating the speech of its employees that differ significantly from those
it possesses in connection with regulation of the speech of the citizenry in
general. More than 100 years ago the Supreme Court noted the government's
legitimate purpose in promoting efficiency and integrity in the discharge of
official duties, and maintaining proper discipline in the public service".

In a
"Nut-Shell" the Federal Court has made it very clear that association is grounds
for termination. This would include attending events sponsored or co-sponsored
by 1% MC's. This would also include the membership in any organization where a
1% MC is also a member or associated with that organization. So be careful where
you ride, play or drink. Take a hard look at the membership of any Motorcycle
Club "Confederation", "Counsel" or "Association" that your LEMC is a member of or associating
with.

Fortunately, Steelhorse Fellowship MC does not have to make one change to the
activities of our Steelhorse Posses as a result
of this Federal Ruling. We are proud to be 100% Law Enforcement and our Articles clearly
forbid our members from engaging in this type of conduct.

If you
want a copy of this ruling, email Kelly and make the request.

December 2007:

Tragedy
and heartache has struck the Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office again. 2007 has
been very hard on Law Enforcement in South Florida, and Palm Beach County was
not spared. We end the year with the loss of another one of our Brothers, Deputy
Timothy Crandall, who died on December 28th. Deputy Crandall was traveling on CR
880 in Western Palm Beach County. While driving westbound, Deputy Crandall
passed another vehicle, he was operating his personal vehicle. For some reason
there was a momentary loss of control and he struck a guardrail causing his
vehicle to cross the roadway and flip, ejecting Deputy Crandall. Deputy
Crandall's vehicle was found on it's roof in the canal bordering the roadway.
Deputy Crandall was transported to Delray Medical Center where he was pronounced
dead. He is survived by his wife Tiffany.

Deputy
Crandall had recently received a life saving award while working at PBSO for
saving a drowning man from a canal, unfortunately, it was a similar canal that
took his life. Only 30 year-old and with just 6 years in Law Enforcement, Deputy
Crandall's death is a great loss. Deputy Crandall was the Gang Liaison for PBSO
District 9 and was a member for the Florida Gang Investigators Association.

2007
gave us a real hard hit to the gut at the very end. Two of our Brothers at Palm
Beach County Sheriff's Office were taken from us. On November 28th, 2007 at 0109
hrs, members of PBSO responded to a call for service, a vehicle had just been
stolen in the Western Communities. Deputies responded to the area and
located the stolen vehicle, still occupied by the two Offenders. A plan was put
into action, several Deputies began to coordinate an effort to stop the stolen
vehicle and take the suspects into custody.

Deputy
Donta Manuel and Deputy Jonathan Wallace quickly responded to the area,
anticipated the route of the stolen vehicle and deployed "Stop-Stick" devices.
The stolen vehicle drove over the deflation device and the tires were damaged.
Unfortunately, the pursuing Deputies needed to position the K-9 Deputy at the
front of the pursuit. The pursuing Deputies slowed to allow K-9 Deputy, Gregorio
Fernandez, to make his way to the front of the pursuit so he could deploy his
dog. As Deputy Fernandez passed the pursuing vehicles, Deputy Manuel and Deputy
Wallace entered the roadway. Deputy Fernandez struck both Deputies with his
patrol vehicle, killing them instantly. K-9 Deputy Fernandez sustained serious
injuries and was transported by Trauma Hawk to St Mary's Hospital.

It is
believed that Deputy Manuel and Deputy Wallace entered the roadway to remove the
tire deflation device. We can only surmise that the retrieval apparatus failed
and these two courageous Deputies placed their lives in harms way to remove the
"Stop-Sticks" so the pursuing Deputies did not run over the device, thereby
endangering the pursuing Deputies and possibly permitting the suspects to
successfully flee.

Deputy
Manuel was a very special member of PBSO. For may of us, we remember him as a
explorer who would always be seen volunteering his time with that big "RED"
radio on his hip. His integrity, professionalism and natural talents made him
everyone's 1st choice for a Deputy Star, unfortunately, we had to wait until he
was old enough. Once he celebrated that magic birthday, he was given a star and
he wore it with pride. 13 years of loyal devotion to his family, friends,
and the Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office, this leader of the community will be
missed.

Deputy
Jonathan Wallace was a young member of our agency. With less than two years on
the job, he was still cutting his teeth and finding his way. Those who worked
closely with him said that he operated beyond his time on the job and those who
didn't know any better recalled thinking he was experienced beyond his
years. A young soldier taken before he could become an "Old Salt".

This has
been such a tragedy on so many levels, Steelhorse Fellowship MC wanted to allow some
time to pass before posting. Thankfully, K-9 Deputy
Fernandez is recovering from his injuries and doing well, he was able to attend
the funeral services. Throughout this painful ordeal, Sheriff Ric Bradshaw
showed so much support to the families of our fallen Brothers and Deputy
Fernandez, he is a true friend to Law Enforcement. Motor Officers and Deputies
from all over Florida came to show their support. There were over 300 Motor
Units leading and supporting the funeral.

Events and other
news from December 2007 will be posted January 2008.

This message
should stand alone.

November 2007:

The
2007 Tour De Force will be running from December 3rd through December 7th. For
those of you who are not familiar with the event, this is the "Low-Down":

Law
Enforcement Officers from all over Florida jump on their bikes (that's bicycles)
and take them down to North Miami Police Department to begin the run. These
riders will spend the next 5 days peddling north to Daytona Beach Shores. This
is 270 miles in 5 days to raise money for families of Fallen Officers. There are
over 42 Law Enforcement Agencies involved with the run and has proven to be more
successful each year. Last year Tour De Force raised over $35,000.00 for
families of Fallen Officers and this year they want to exceed that number.

If you
wish to make a donation and pitch in, just click on here"Kelly"and we will send you a
pledge sheet. Or send a check to "Tour De Force Bike Ride" and mail the check to
Sgt Kevin O'Brien at Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office; 3228 Gun Club Road,
West Palm Beach, Florida 33406. You can contact Sgt O'Brien atObrienK@pbso.org.

On November 19, 2007
at 0800 hrs she had a beautiful baby girl, Hannah Isobel.
7 lbs 15 oz and 20.5 inches.

Congratulations

Steelhorse Fellowship MC was proud to be invited to the First Annual FGIA Rod
Run & Motorcycle Rally. The event was a good time for all and we anticipate
it growing each year. Several of our Riders are members of the FGIA as well
as many of our Brothers & Sisters in Law Enforcement. Take a moment to view
some of the pictures from
FGIA RALLY and
hopefully next year you will attend.

Everyone needs to remember that the Bill's Bike's Memorial Toy Run will be
held on December 2nd with a rain date of December 9th. For more information,
go to our Events Page.

This
has been a difficult year for Florida Law Enforcement Officers, we have lost
13 of our Brothers & Sisters this year. Please be careful so we don't have
to grieve for number 14. Be sharp, look out for the others on your shift,
take nothing for granted and remember that anyone can be a Cop Killer no
matter what they look like.

October
2007:

October was a fun month. We saw the cooler weather roll in, and it felt
great. Everyone is gearing up for the Holiday Season and the leathers are
being pulled from the closets.

Steelhorse Fellowship MC set up at Encore RV Park, located just behind Rossmeyer's
Destination Daytona, for Biketoberfest 2007. Members from our Collier Posse
and Palm Beach Posse attended the event as well as Posse Supporters. As usual they gave us a great
spot under the pine trees. Which is a nice perk since our location allowed
us to walk to Destination Daytona instead of battling the parking lot. Local
Law Enforcement did a great job of directing traffic and keeping everyone
safe. Main street was a blast and the vendors fit the bill. Go to the photo
page Biketoberfest 2007
and check out some of the photos.

Steelhorse Fellowship MC is looking forward to the Tour De Force 2007. As usual the
Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office will have
riders in the event and Steelhorse Fellowship MC will be proud to sponsor them.

September 2007:

The 1st and
most important issue for this month is taking the time to remember those of our
Brothers and Sisters who were forever effected by the attack on New York on
September 11th. The tragedy of that day was burned into the minds of every
American. We need to make sure that those who lost their lives and those who
lost loved ones are never forgotten.

Steelhorse
Fellowship MC urges everyone to take some time and look at the
Officer Down Memorial Page. This has not been
a very good year for our Brothers & Sisters, Florida alone has 9 Officers killed
in the line of duty. Gunfire has been the greatest threat, with vehicle
accidents coming in second. 132 Officers taken from us so far this year and it
seems violence toward Law Enforcement is spiking. Lets be careful out there and
hopefully there won't be another loss this year.

Steelhorse
Fellowship MC headed to Key West for the Annual Peterson's Poker Run. We had a great
time and a special thanks needs to go out to Twister and Dan for making the
weekend a memorable time. There was more food and drink than we could consume.
As soon as we can gather up all the photos, they will be posted. The weekend was
a relaxing time with our Brothers & Sisters from our Collier County District and
our new members from Lee County. We are looking forward to another great time
next month at BiketoberFest.

August
2007:

The "Got
Dave" fundraiser at the Sound Advice Amphitheater was a great success. Take a
few moments and flip through the
photos.Dave looked great and was in terrific spirits.

July 2007:

Sgt Bradford has since been transferred to Shepherd Center in Atlanta, Georgia
to continue his fight against the paralysis he sustained during the motorcycle accident. This
19-year veteran of the Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office was struck down
through no fault of his own. He was driving with other members of our agency
when a reckless driver traveling at 104 mph struck his motorcycle. Since that
day, Sgt Bradford has been in the fight for his life. Even though Sgt Bradford
and his wife own a home in Palm Beach County, it is necessary for them to
maintain a second residence in Georgia while he struggles through
rehabilitation. Sgt Bradford's wife, Sandy, also works for the Palm Beach County
Sheriff's Office. This family has spent the past two decades helping people and
protecting victims.

As you can imagine, the
financial strain is as difficult as the emotional strain. But this is a strong family
with a large circle of friends, they keep fighting. Steelhorse Fellowship Motorcycle Club has pledged
our support to Sgt Bradford and his family. The founding members are active and
retired Deputies of the Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office. We have ridden with
Sgt Bradford, we have worked with Sgt Bradford and he is one of the best.

Please take a moment and visit
www.Bradford454.com . This site posts progress reports of Sgt Bradford's
rehabilitation as well as posting information for fundraisers. We ask that you
keep Sgt Bradford and his family in your thoughts and take the time to attend
one of the events.

On
June 10th, Steve-O's Motorcycle Shop sponsored a fundraiser, and it was one
heck of an event. There was live music by Wild Bushmen, tons of door prizes,
food and loads of beverages. The weather was clear and the turnout was
outstanding. The event raised 9k for the Bradford family. Although the event
was sponsored by Steve-O's, several other businesses pitched in. So stop by
Steve-O's (407 Commerce Way, Jupiter), support a business that supports Law
Enforcement, and then go and visit the other businesses that pitched in and
made donations to the event.

Duffy's Restaurant donated 10% of all meals ordered in Sgt Bradford's name
on June 5th. Over $2,500.00 was raised and forwarded to the Bradford family.

Sgt
David Bradford is doing much better. Last we heard he was able to move
around in a wheelchair and his spirits are high. The physical therapy is
moving along very well and there is some movement in his left foot. The
support and words of encouragement from Law Enforcement and the local
community has been overwhelming. Sgt Bradford and Sandy send out their
warmest appreciation.

Steelhorse Fellowship MC took some time off during May and enjoyed a few days of riding in the
Great Smoky Mountains and the surrounding area. Take a look at some of the
Pictures.

May 2007:

Sgt
Bradford Update

Sgt
Bradford has shown much improvement. He is far from being our of the woods,
but there are gains everyday. His wife, Sandy, has been at his side since
the day of the accident. This has been very difficult for her but she has
shown great strength and courage for both of them. The Central Florida PBA
stepped in and has really been showing tremendous support to our Brother and
his family. Sheriff Ric Bradshaw, along with other Command Staff Personnel,
have traveled to Orlando to show their genuine friendship and support to Sgt
Bradford. During tough times like these, it lifts the spirits of an injured
Brother to know that everyone at his agency, from the Sheriff to the last
man hired, has his back and is looking out for his family.

April 2007:

On
Saturday April 28, 2007 one of our Brothers went down while in route to
Leesburg for the Bike Event. Sgt David Bradford was traveling to the event
with several other LEO's from the Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office. Sgt
Bradford and his group were traveling north on the Turnpike when he was
struck by a motorist who was traveling far beyond the legal speed limit. Sgt
Bradford is presently in critical condition at a hospital in Orlando. Please
keep Sgt David Bradford and his family in your thoughts and prayers.

On
April 21, 2007 Steelhorse Fellowship MC traveled to Quincy Florida to show our
support to Sheriff Don Hunter (Collier County) and his family. Sheriff
Hunter's brother, Tony Hunter, has been diagnosed with cancer so his family
and friends had a "Concert
in The Barn" to show their love and support for Tony and to raise money
for cancer research. The event took place on the May Tobacco Farm. There was
more food than we could eat, the music was top notch, and the people were
the best you could ask for. Billy Pierson, a local singer who just signed
with a major label, donated his time and talent to headline the event. The
Defenders MC assisted Sheriff Hunter with coordinating the guests who had
traveled long distances to attend the event, special thanks to Chubbs. Steelhorse
Fellowship MC was honored that our club was one of only two clubs invited
to attend this event. Our love, respect and heartfelt support goes out to
Tony Hunter and his family. Please take a moment to view some of the
pictures taken at the barn. This event gave us some special time with
our Brothers and Sisters in our Collier County District. One of those
special members, Twister, took the bull by the horns and set everything up
for us. All we had to do was make the ride and enjoy the company. Twister
works very hard at putting together our events and rides and we owe her much
respect and gratitude. She is one of our best members are we are privileged
and honored to ride with her.

We had
the pleasure of spending some time on the Iron Shield MC website, this is a
very professional organization. We recommend everyone take a moment
and visit the site (www.IronShields.org)
it will be worth it. The Club Insignia is traditional and very honorable.
The message and the foundation for the club is without a doubt, true New
York. We are very proud to call the Iron Shields MC our brothers and
sisters.

Steelhorse
Fellowship MC had the pleasure of joining our Brothers & Sister in Brevard
County for the 5th Annual "LAWRIDE". It was a great time and we will
continue to support this event every year. Sheriff Jack Parker is a
genuinely nice guy. It doesn't take long to see that he is a down-to-earth
man who truly cares about the citizens of Brevard County and the employees
working for his agency. The LAWRIDE was a real ride that took us through
three counties. Take a moment to visit our
"Photo
Page" and check out some of the pics.

March 2007:

Biker
Mother of Six

A Biker's
greatest achievement was his brood of six children. He was so proud that he
constantly called his wife: "Mother of Six", which always pissed her off. Even
though she pleaded with him to stop, he could not help calling her "Mother of
Six", even in public. One afternoon after attending a Poker Run that was winding
down, he called out, "Mother of Six - ready to go home yet?" At first she was
enraged, she composed herself, and then yelled out across the bar "Anytime
you're ready Father of Four!"

There
is a particular Motorcycle Club that thought it would be a good idea to copy an
image from our website and use it on their website. This type of behavior is
unprofessional and not cool. Especially from a Club that claims to respect all
other MC's. If there is an image someone would like to use, have the common
courtesy to ask permission. The image possesses an intentional hidden mark and a
flaw to identify it as Steelhorse Fellowship MC property. We will not make an issue
out of the unauthorized use due to the content the image was included in. In the
future we just ask that someone desiring to use an image, have the decency to
ask permission, this would be the adult thing to do.

The Peace Keepers MC
have lost one of their members, Deputy Stuart Reeves. Please take a moment to
visit their site and show some support.

JANUARY 2007:

The Iron Shield LEMC
in New York is well on their way. Steelhorse Fellowship MC looks forward to
riding with our Brothers and Sisters in the Northeast.

The Law Enforcement
Agencies represented in Steelhorse Fellowship MC share a common bond with every
other Law Enforcement Agency across the United States; we all have members
serving in the Military . Some of us have lost Brothers or Sisters on
foreign soil and we feel the pain in the hearts of the families left behind.
Protecting the citizens of this great country sometimes takes our Brothers
and Sisters to foreign lands, but the dedication to enforcing the law and
keeping the peace is always in their hearts. Pride cannot be stolen,
fortitude cannot be breached and dedication is unstoppable.

Happy Holidays

To all of our brothers and sisters in
Law Enforcement and those proudly serving in the US Military.

This is a special time of year for family and friends,
unfortunately it can also be a very dangerous time of year. One of the greatest
Hazards is also one of the simplest to avoid, alcohol related injuries and
deaths. If we look out for each other, everyone of us can make it home safe this
year.

We are proud to announce
that Sergeant Kevin O'Brien completed the 2006 Tour de Force on 12-08-06 at 1445
hrs. Sergeant O'Brien was able to raise $2,000.00 during his 270 mile ride. This
year's event exceeded the goal and the riders raised $22,000.00 for the families
of fallen officers. Steelhorse Fellowship MC would like to congratulate Sergeant
Kevin O'Brien and all the riders for their dedication to help their Brothers and
Sisters in Law Enforcement.

10th
Annual - Tour de Force 2006

Steelhorse Fellowship Motorcycle
Club sponsors rider in this year's Tour de Force

This
year's Tour de Force will have a rider from the Palm Beach County Sheriff's
Office (PBSO). Sergeant Kevin O'Brien will be riding during the 2006 event. The
270 mile bicycle ride, that benefits the families of fallen Police Officers,
will begin at the North Miami Beach Police Department on Monday December 4th and
end in Daytona Beach Shores on December 8th. This event will take the riders
through 42 LEO jurisdictions and more than 500 Law Enforcement personnel are
expected to participate. Since the first Tour de Force in 1997, the event has
gained strength every year and has raised over $87,000.00 for the families of
fallen Law Enforcement Officers. This year's proceeds will go directly to assist
the families of Fallen Florida Law Enforcement Officers, the target is to exceed
20K. The riders have donated their time and bodies to this event, emphasis on
BODY! The riders are required to cover their own expenses, which include 4
nights in a hotel to complete the 5-day ride. Steelhorse Fellowship Motorcycle Club
has donated the money to cover all of Sergeant O'Brien's lodging.

We
know some Bikers that aren't willing to put 270 miles on a motorcycle, but
Sergeant O'Brien is putting his BUTT on the line, literally. Last year
only 32 riders completed the entire 270 mile ride, this charity event takes guts
and a big heart, and Sergeant O'Brien packs the gear. Sergeant O'Brien has been
a dedicated member of PBSO for 19 years, during that time, his assignments have
ranged from Road Patrol to Field Training Coordinator. He has been assigned to
the PBSO Tactical Unit, Organized Crime Bureau, and Detective Bureau. He
maintains several instructor certifications and recently graduated from the
Southern Police Institute. He has been instrumental with the recent Royal Palm
Beach Police Department merger, as well as Team Building initiatives and Career
Fair presentations. Sgt Kevin O'Brien is a former US Marine who served in Japan
and North Carolina as a Nuclear-Biological-Chemical Defense Specialist who
trained other Marines in this very critical field. He was assigned to our local
4th ANGLICO-USMCR in West Palm Beach, Florida. His dedication to Country and
Corp earned him the assignment of NBC Chief and Helicopter Rope Suspension
Master. As we said before, Sergeant Kevin O'Brien packs the gear to enter this
ride and complete this ride. Oh Yeah.... He also organizes the annual "Toys for
Tots" drive through the United States Marine Corps Reserve for Palm Beach County
Sheriff's Office.

Join Steelhorse
Fellowship
MC as we support the Tour de Force and Sergeant Kevin O'Brien. If you would like

General Message

Steelhorse
Fellowship Motorcycle Club would
like to take this opportunity to thank all of the Law Enforcement Motorcycle
Clubs (LEMC's) that have extended their friendship and respect to our club. The
support and encouragement from the other TRUE LEMC's, Independent MC's, and Law
Enforcement agencies has exceeded our expectations.

Due to the demands of the diverse work
schedules placed on our members we have found it very difficult to attend the
numerous events we have been invited to. Steelhorse Fellowship MC makes every effort
to attend as many LEMC events as we can because we know how important it is to
support our Brothers and Sisters in Law Enforcement.

Be Safe, Be Brave, Be Proud......

Happy Birthday USMC

Steelhorse Fellowship MC traveled to
Florida's West Coast to show our support to the Defenders MC. The Defenders held
their 4th Annual Hugh May Memorial Poker Run to keep Hugh May's memory alive and
raise money for his children's college fund. The event was a success on many
levels. The weather was as perfect as the ride and everyone had a great time.
The Defenders pulled out all the stops and the event was a lot of fun. The food,
the band, the people, were all Top Shelf. We were able to spend some time with
old friends and had the pleasure of making some new friends. SPMC can't say
enough about the respect and friendship the Defenders extended to our club and
the other attendees. The Defenders MC receive a well deserved "Big Tip of the
Hat" for a job well done.

Johnny S. Flint, Sr.

(AKA: SHAFT)

Today we said goodbye to one of the
finest Law Enforcement Officers Florida has ever known. He dedicated his life to
his family, friends, and Law Enforcement. Those of us who had the honor and
pleasure of knowing him, either called him "Johnny" or "Flint". Johnny is one
of the most well known and well respected Investigators in Palm Beach County.
Johnny's career has been nothing less than spectacular, but his many
accomplishments as a Law Enforcement Officer did not signify his greatest
achievements. Johnny Flint will be remembered, most of all, for being one
of the finest human beings we have ever known. He loved his family with a
passion and spoke of them all the time. His friendship is considered a gift and
you were privileged to have Johnny consider you a friend. I have never seen so
many Cops say that they loved another Cop in all my life, but the words rolled
off their tongues when they spoke about Flint. Johnny's humor and stories are
legendary, no one could "Tell It" like the Flint. The man was a master at
bringing people to tears with his stories and descriptions of events past and
present. I always called him Shaft (referring to the Movie Character John Shaft)
because Johnny was a smooth operator, who always kept his cool.

I will never forget this man, a man
who gave so much to so many and never asked for anything in return. Johnny's
passing has left such a big hole behind because he contributed so much. Johnny
Flint is one of those special people that you never stop thinking about. The
wound from his loss will never heal, a tear will always fall at the sound of his
name, and we will always hear his laughter in our dreams.

September 11, 2006

This date marks the 5th Anniversary of the attack on America by cowards from
the Middle East. Many lives were lost on this date in this great nation's
history. For most people this date brings back images of planes flying into the
World Trade Center (Twin Towers). Unfortunately this date also saw the attack on
our Pentagon and the loss of lives when United Airlines Flight 93 crashed into a
field in Pennsylvania.

The attacks caused the loss of many innocent lives, but the tragedy did not
end there. Many more dedicated Law Enforcement and Emergency Services personnel
paid the ultimate sacrifice while attempting to save the injured.

New York City Fire Fighters and Police Officers placed themselves in the
gravest of danger when there was only a sliver of hope to save even one life.

Regrettably, the tragedy continues as many who responded to "Ground Zero" are
still feeling the effects of the toxins that they breathed and the poisons that
were absorbed into their skin.

Many organizations speak of dedication and loyalty, but none can compare to
the men and woman we proudly call our Brothers and Sisters.
